FRANCOFEST 2019

A-level Language Debates 2018-19

NICILT plays an important role in running the Northern Ireland A-level French, Spanish and German debating competitions for schools.

These events are especially designed to support AS and A2 language studies and help pupils gain enhanced speaking and listening skills in their chosen language. The competitions this academic year will take place at Queen's University Belfast in February and March 2019. Registration will open in the Autumn term, and if the competitions are over-subscribed, schools will be chosen in a live Facebook draw in December.

'Adopt a Class' Project- a unique learning experience to include on your CV!

A new and exclusive project for Level 2 students of French, Irish and Spanish at Queen's University.
Fancy spreading the languages love at your old post-primary school to help promote and support language learning?

In this project each student will 'adopt' a class! It includes 4 hour contact time before starting year abroad/ Gaeltacht residency; opportunity to stay in touch throughout year abroad/ level 3 (if choosing Irish) and a preparation workshop with qualified language teachers at NICILT.
